April 4, 2012 8:44 pm I'm a Morrison "hater," and this run has solidified my dislike for his style of writing.He's doing the same things to Superman that he did to Batman; throw a billion small nods to characters and plots to give him an ongoing story, while making the lead character some omnipotent god that "knows everything that's going on" behind the scenes. Since none of the plot points in this story interact well with the rest of DC, in a year from now Morrison will ret-con it all by using some time-travel or parallel universe ploy and say that he knew what he was doing from the very first issue, and how really Superman knew everything too, so it will be easy to solve. I know, I'm ranting, but this was a chance here to tell a down to Earth, original Superman origin, and instead Morrison used the pages as his canvas to tell convoluted, confusing stories with no real payoff of action or emotion.
